The famous and very much-loved touring Rock ‘n’ Roll show, “That’ll Be The Day” once again took place at the Follies Theatre, Folly Farm at the end of October, and raised £9,063.00 for local charity, Paul Sartori Hospice at Home.
“That’ll be the Day” has made 34 appearances in Pembrokeshire, and in the 15 years appearing at Folly Farm the Rock ‘n’ Roll performances have raised the staggering sum of £142,563 for various Pembrokeshire Charities.
Event organiser Phil Thompson MBE said: “To raise this amount of money in the current economic climate is amazing and I thank the Pembrokeshire people for supporting the shows. A SPECIAL thank you must go to Folly Farm for allowing us to stage the shows in the Follies Theatre and for all their continued support with ongoing Community engagement!"
STOP PRESS! “That'll Be The Day” will be back at Folly Farm on 27th & 28th October 2023. Tickets will be on sale soon!!
The event organisers were also very pleased to have been supported by MOJO Marketing and Milford Haven Port Authority as sponsors, and Pure West Radio as the media partner.
